"Thank You" lyrics - GENTLE GIANT

THANK YOU, for staying around so long, I know it's been hard.
You spend half your life, just testing the ground.
THANK YOU, I thought you would come to along, I didn't know when,
And all of those years, Just foolin' around.

THANK YOU, for taking me as I am. No better than you.
You give me your love, You take it from me.
THANK YOU, for staying around so long, I know it's been hard.
You spend half your life, just testing the ground.
THANK YOU, You like all my funny ways, the things that I do.
We both understand, To give and to be.

(*) THANK YOU,
For waiting such a long time, And strange that it just had to be.
It's true,
You look, you keep on trying,
Had to keep on trying,
Search for half a life time, suddenly it's there.
THANK YOU, for being here where I am, It's better by far
Not living alone, The future to share.
THANK YOU, for loving me like you do, for being my friend,
And taking my hand, and sharing my cares.

(*) REPEAT....
